Description: 49ers tight end Vernon Davis could be cut this offseason, according to Matt Maiocco of CSN Bay Area.

Insight: After posting just 26 catches for 245 yards and two touchdowns, Davis does not warrant the $5 million he is owed next season. At 31-years-old, his best days are clearly behind him, but he still could help another team out.

Description: Remember when 49ers tight end Vernon Davis was one of the best fantasy tight ends in the league?

Insight: You should, it was just last season when he posted a 52-850-13 line. In 2014 he couldn't even catch the flu and finished with 26 receptions for 245 yards and just two touchdowns (both on opening day).

Insight: How can a player with his talent level be playing so poorly all season? Davis remains the biggest bust among tight ends in 2014 and shouldn't be started. Since a two-touchdown opening game, Davis hasn't cracked the five-point mark.

Description: 49ers tight end Vernon Davis was targeted five times Sunday, catching three of them.

Insight: Davis posted his first multi-catch game since Week 9. That's not saying much and he's still not fantasy worthy after a three-catch, 21-yard afternoon.

Insight: He didn't have any setbacks this week in practice, as he was able to be a full participant throughout. He will be a TE1 for Sunday night's matchup.
